Hematite Photoanodes for Solar Water Splitting: A Detailed Spectroelectrochemical Analysis on the pH-Dependent Performance

Nestor Guijarro Carratala, Florian Le Formal, Yongpeng Liu, Florent Alexandre Boudoire

The effect of the electrolyte pH on the performance of metal oxide photoanodes for solar water oxidation has not been fully resolved, and contrasting views have been presented in recent reports. Herein, a comprehensive set of spectroelectrochemical techniq ...

Nanocrystalline Boron-Doped Diamond as a Corrosion-Resistant Anode for Water Oxidation via Si Photoelectrodes

Kevin Sivula, Jun Ho Yum, Ladislav Kavan, Florian Le Formal, Petr Ashcheulov

Due to its high sensitivity to corrosion, the use of Si in direct photoelectrochemical (PEC) water-splitting systems that convert solar energy into chemical fuels has been greatly limited. Therefore, the development of low-cost materials resistant to corro ...

CuInGaS2 photocathodes treated with SbX3 (X = Cl, I): the effect of the halide on solar water splitting performance

Kevin Sivula, Nestor Guijarro Carratala, Florian Le Formal, Xavier Adrian Jeanbourquin, Xiaoyun Yu, Mathieu Steven Prévot, Pauline Bornoz, Wiktor Stefan Bourée

The realization of photoelectrochemical tandem cells for efficient solar-to-hydrogen energy conversion is currently impeded by the lack of inexpensive, stable, and efficient photocathodes. The family of sulfide chalcopyrites (CuInxGa1-xS2) has recently dem ...
